EA released the Stainless Games re-imagining of the classic board game, Risk: Factions, on the PC yesterday. The title has already spent several months on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, but it's available now through Steam for $9.99.

Factions puts its own spin on the Risk formula by introducing new objective modes, terrain benefits, and new maps besides the standard World. Players who prefer their Risk untarnished by new ideas can play the Classic mode, while Factions mode weaves a zany cartoon story around the action. If you've ever been playing Risk and thought to yourself, "if only Zombies were fighting Robots," this is your game.
